    London Power Boat Grand Prix

    The F1H2O World Championship returned to London last weekend, for the first time since 1985, which I also attended. A lot has changed in the last 33 years, most of it to do with 'elf & safety'! You can no longer get access to both ends of the course, where much of the action takes place, but it was still an amazing experience as the boats reached speeds of 130mph. I hope you enjoy a brief selection from the 800 plus images I took!











    Boat number 74 driven by Erik Stark from Sweden won.

    All images taken using a 1DX with 100-400mm f/4.5-5.6 L IS II lens.

    Thanks for looking.

            Thanks Tom and Dan. Not sure about your comment about #4? If it's because the boat does not appear sharp it's spray from the boat it is following. You can see the wake from the other boat in the foreground.

              Yes it's because it's not sharp to my eye.

                            Nice set Brian, it's good to see something a little different. Like the last one with the spray.
